Dvādaśī-vrata: Month-by-month Viṣṇu Worship and the Year-End Udyāpana
सनक उवाच । साधु साधु मुनिश्रेष्ट भक्तस्त्वं पुरुषोत्तमेः । भूयो भूयो यतः पुच्छेश्चरित्रं शार्ङ्गधन्वनः ॥ १० ॥
sanaka uvāca | sādhu sādhu muniśreṣṭa bhaktastvaṃ puruṣottameḥ | bhūyo bhūyo yataḥ puccheścaritraṃ śārṅgadhanvanaḥ || 10 ||
萨那迦说道:“善哉,善哉,最胜的圣者!你确实奉爱至上人格主(Puruṣottama)。既然你一再询问那持娑楞伽弓者的圣行,我将为你宣说。”
Sanaka
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
The verse sanctifies repeated inquiry into Viṣṇu’s sacred deeds, presenting earnest questioning and attentive listening as marks of genuine devotion to Puruṣottama.
Bhakti is shown as a living practice: the devotee repeatedly seeks Hari-kathā (Viṣṇu’s caritra), and the realized teacher responds by narrating it—highlighting śravaṇa (hearing) and sat-saṅga (holy dialogue).
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is the discipline of śravaṇa—systematically hearing authoritative Purāṇic narration as a devotional method.
